“Oh my God it’s busted”: New Elden Ring Build Type is Broken and Makes a Mockery of Shadow of the Erdtree’s Difficulty

Elden Ring players impressed the gaming community with a unique build that will make everyone reconsider theirs.

SUMMARY

  • FromSoftware crafted several unique items for the players to explore and use for the perfect build.
  • Elden Ring players are getting creative with their builds that could easily destroy any enemy standing.
  • The Shadow of the Erdtree expansion is now available for players to play on various platforms.

Elden Ring players are having a great time playing the highly-anticipated expansion and are pleased to see some of their builds melt overpowered enemies. Some players train for hours to beat a specific enemy, while others let their builds and equipment do all the work.

FromSoftware gave the gaming community all the tools that they would need to make it through the game and it all depends on how well a player performs in the game. Players can mix and match certain items and experiment by doing some trial by fire, where results may vary.

FromSoftware did not hold back with this expansion and encouraged even the most skilled player to take caution for the newest big bad. The legendary player who went by Let Me Solo Her has their sights on Messmer for the latest Elden Ring expansion.

Soulslike games are not all about brawn and power; players have to use every tool available, which includes the biggest muscle of them all: the brain. Players can do some impressive stuff if they take their time to experiment with certain builds and use them in the field. One player did a full Perfumer build and the results were glorious.

Some players went with a different approach to face down Mohg, an omnipotent boss of the base game and was comfortable unleashing powerful attacks from a distance with magic. The player spent an insane amount of time thinking about the perfect build, and it is safe to say that they have gotten more than what they bargained for.

It doesn’t matter how a player defeats an enemy, as long as they get it done. Players may have to get their hands dirty to make good progress, and carefully stacking certain items and abilities on top of one another could lead to promising results.

Shadow of the Erdtree Could Be the Perfect Expansion to Beta Test These Builds

The developers thought of every possible approach or method a player may want to take in the latest project. From fighting an enemy up close and entering their deadly reaches to blasting them with magic from a distance, a build can make or break the overall experience.

Providing the players with enough options to create unique builds with different approaches in mind could elevate the gaming experience and allow them to stand out. The developers were able to cater to players with different preferences and playstyles, giving them full agency over how to handle a combat situation.

FromSoftware did not hold back with the marketing campaign for the expansion and showcased a bunch of new content, including new fighting styles which could provide the players with a new avenue to explore. Players can explore whatever approach they see fit and have the freedom to create more builds.

The expansion is said to be on par with the base game, which was already insanely difficult, perhaps it wouldn’t be a bad idea to get experimental. The Soulslike genre is not for the faint of heart but some creativity could make a difference.
